Ingredients

  • 2/3 c. parsley, roughly chopped

  • 2 tablespoons pimiento, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled
  • 2-1/2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  2. In a large non-stick skillet, add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and bring to medium high heat. When hot, add onions. Sauté 4-6 minutes or until tender and edges begin to brown. Add mango and roasted red peppers to skillet; sauté an additional 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm. Reduce heat to medium.
